Ozark 3515N Biscuit Resonator Steel Body Overview
Slighter lighter than Brass, the all-solid Steel body Ozark 3515N Resonator Guitar offers a rich, metallic tone, generated from a single inverted metal ‘speaker’ cone, mounted within the Steel body. This is a great choice for Guitarists looking to explore the unique sound and tonal qualities that a Resonator has to offer.
Notably, the all-solid Steel design with a ‘biscuit’ bridge was highly favoured by Delta Blues players due to the superior volume and dynamics to those generated from wooden body Resonator Guitars. The ‘Biscuit’-Bridge Single-Cone design gets its name from a small wooden disc found in the centre of the cone. The saddle is also crafted from wood and sits in a slot in the ‘biscuit’.
The cone rests on a small ridge on the bottom of a well built into the Guitar body, with string vibrations driven to a single point within the cone, generating stronger fundamental tonal results with less complexity and overtones. The attractive features of this great instrument make it a fantastic, affordable choice for Guitar players looking to purchase their first Resonator who require an easy transition that offers full versatility.
